What Bumble Bees Are Found in Bristol?
Bumble bees in the UK, number some 24 species yet only six species are still commonly found in our gardens. In the spring bumble bees are among the first large insects to be seen and it is not until early summer that these bees have established colonies of sufficient numbers to cause alarm.
In general bumble bees are harmless if left alone, we only encounter problems when young children or pets fail to leave them alone.
Can Bumble Bees Sting or Bite?
Bumble bees like honey bees have a defensive sting that is very effective. They will only sting in most cases where they are handled or compressed when someone treads on one. The European Tree Bumble Bee Bombus hypnorum is one exception. These bees (pictured above) nest at height and readily attack people who disturb them.
Tree Bumble Bees tend to focus an attack on the head and face, making these bees a major problem.
What Should I do If I Am Stung by a Bumble Bee?
Are Bumble Bees Protected By Law In The UK?
No - but in our opinion, control of bumble bees should be tightly regulated. Bumble bees are one of nature's true wonders and are a key reason we are able to enjoy the great wealth of fruits etc that is nature's bounty.
After a good recovery in bumble bee numbers last year we are hoping they will continue to recover this year especially after such a wet winter. We want to help these creatures survive in greater numbers, so future generations have the chance to enjoy them and on that note we offer a re-homing service.
Why Is Bumble Bee Removal and Control Carried Out?
Not everyone loves bees, especially those suffering from phobias and severe sting allergies. People at risk of Anaphylactic reactions from bee stings include both adults and young children, and they need to be protected.
Whatever spin you place on it, the realities are played out the same every year. If we don't manage the tiny proportion of inconvenient bumble bee nests safely and sensitively, there are plenty of chemicals amateurs can buy to kill the bees themselves at great risk to others, and often contaminating surrounding hives and causing untold damage to the local areas bee and insect populations.
For us, we must stress that elimination is a last resort and requires householder consent during our inspection visit before we carry out any treatment.

WaspKill UK - The Very Best Pest Control Extermination Advice and Solutions:
Bristol Bumble Bee Control Advice: Getting rid of Bumble Bees and other insects like Honey Bees, Wasps and Hornets is not as simple as many pesticide manufacturers will lead you to believe. The chemicals or poisons on offer in supermarkets and shops often have a fraction of the effect that is achieved through professional products and this means you are likely to get through many cans of treatment without actually achieving lasting elimination. As the only Bristol Bumble Bee Control exterminator offering a dedicated insect elimination service, we are able to deliver solutions that are often guaranteed to work.
Environmental health services, are all about understanding the pests you are trying to eliminate or prevent so you can make the environment less conducive to them. The Wasp for example creates a wasp nest early in the year so if you wanted to control wasps in Bristol you would probably guess that checking for a new wasp nest in your loft in April and May would allow you to remove a wasp nest safely before it became too large. By understanding your pest, you are able to plan pest management in advance, before infestation occurs and the cost of elimination becomes high.
